Hi everyone!
My husband and I got married in October and postponed our honeymoon to fit around my work schedule. Our travel dates (including air travel) are March 27- April 4/5.
We're interested in medium-low traffic areas that offer stunning views, delicious food, and authentic Greek culture (so basically all of Greece!). Seeing as how we're going more into an off season, we would be thrilled to go to more popular cities if they aren't nearly as packed. We have a hotel booked for the first couple of nights in Lefkada, near Frini. I do have concerns about available ferries to get to Lefkada from whichever airport we arrive at.
We really want to make the most out of our visit! I enjoy planning trips, but I do feel a bit apprehensive about transportation and picking places that may be too far away and cuts time out of our days. Any advice or suggestions is so greatly appreciated. Let me know if more information is needed!

There is a bridge from the mainland to go to Lefkada. So no need to take a ferry.
The nearest airport is in Preveza (Aktion airport) but no flights from Athens.
With the "KTEL Lefkadas" Bus, you can reach Lefkada from Athens in about 5 hours.
You can also take a flight Athens → Ioanina then rent a car (3 hours drive)
Or by road from Athens, it will take you a little more than 4 hours passing through the North of the Peloponnese via the Corinth Canal and the Patras Bridge.
